Selecting a race is the first step in the character creation process. It must be noted that your race is not the same as your nationality in Scars of War. Whatever your race, you are a citizen of the nation of Athar. You fought in its war and live within its borders. However, depending on your race selection, you may be descended from very recent settlers within Athar. Unlike other RPGs, not all races in Scars of War are born equal. Some races have more natural advantages than others. These advantages come at a cost however. All races have a Build Point cost associated with choosing them. The more advantages the race has, the higher the initial Build Point cost, and the fewer points you will have left to spend during the later stages of character creation. As well as the basic advantages all members of a race share, there are also Racial Traits. These traits are similar to normal traits however only members of the appropriate race can select these traits, and only during Character Creation.
The list of races available to player characters during Character Creation is as follows (click the race for more details):
